Building on his successful book, The First Islamist Republic, Abdullahi A. Gallab’s Their Second Republic: Islamism in the Sudan from Disintegration to Oblivion deals with Islamism, its representations, history, and transformations in the region. Continuing the study of Islamism in power the book affirms the continuous disintegration of the Islamist movement in the Sudan taking a critical look at its institutions and their ideological and rhetorical stances. The book provides an entry point into Hasan al-Turabi’s Islamism, its local regimes and their disintegration. The book addresses the profound transformations that stem from the anachronistic qualities of political Islam as it deploys violence to maintain power. Gallab describes this as savage separation of religion and state. The main focus of the book is to provide a socio-historical analysis of developments and transformations of historic forms of Islamism and its runaway world as well as situating it in its local and global contexts.

’This is a significant book with an interesting argument supported by appropriate and well researched sources.’ Peter Woodward, University of Reading, UK ’Gallab’s study of the Islamist regime in Sudan provides an in-depth case study of Political Islam in practice. He presents a balanced analysis, showing the evolution of the Islamist movement while in power. This study is valuable not just for specialists in Sudanese affairs but also for anyone who is interested in the future of Political Islam and religiously-defined regimes.’ John O. Voll, Georgetown University, USA ’As a sequel to the analysis of political Islam in Sudan, Their Second Republic offers a passionate appraisal of the contours of Islamism in Sudan's three past decades. This book is a welcome input to the testimonies about how the global political Islam is on the verge of a serious transformation.’ Asef Bayat, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA '... this book is a highly rewarding read. It offers an interesting insight into the way that Islamism has risen to power in Sudan and how it failed to deliver on the promise of salvation on which its initial legitimacy rested.'
